There is only one undefeated team left in all of college basketball — the South Carolina Gamecocks. The fighting Dawn Staleys cruised past No. 3 LSU in front of a packed house on Sunday afternoon, 88-64. The Gamecocks remain in the top spot in Autumn Johnson's Power 10 women's college basketball rankings this week.
